Quand:<\/strong>\u00a0Tuesday, April 14 | 1 p.m. (weekly)
O\u00f9:<\/strong>\u00a0Clubhouse 6
Billets:\u00a0<\/strong>Annual membership $50<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topic Masters Club is a community group that offers a relaxed and supportive environment for residents to build confidence in public speaking, share life experiences, and connect with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 quoi s'attendre<\/mark><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A typical meeting starts with pledge of allegiance, followed by inspiration. The Master of Ceremonies introduces the Grammarian who will reveal the word of the day\u2014a playful challenge encouraging members to use it in their responses to the quizmaster’s question (or drop a quarter in the jar if they forget). Members respond to questions on the spot, sharing thoughts and stories, while a Timekeeper keeps each response within two minutes to maintain a lively pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Midway through, the group takes a 15-minute break for refreshments and conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the break, two members deliver prepared 10\u201312 minute speeches, followed by evaluations, offering constructive feedback to help speakers grow in confidence, clarity, and presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A General Evaluator shares observations on how the meeting flowed and how it might improve. The Grammarian returns to reveal who used the \u201cWord of the Day\u201d correctly and who might owe a quarter. The Timekeeper then announces the \u201cBest Speaker of the Day,\u201d based on ballots cast during the break. The winner receives a certificate and a candy bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before adjournment, a clipboard circulates for members to volunteer for next week\u2019s roles\u2014Master of Ceremonies, Grammarian, Timekeeper, Quizmaster, speakers, evaluators and inspiration leader. It\u2019s a simple tradition that keeps the club vibrant and member-driven. With roles filled and no further business, the meeting adjourns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
